Open critic is a fart in the wind compared to metracritic, and right on the front page is a 86 for star field.

It's actually scoring higher than AC6 with higher review counts too.

Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon Reviews

Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon is rated 'Mighty' after being reviewed by 96 critics, with an overall average score of 85. It's ranked in the top 5% of games and recommended by 91% of critics.

And tied with FF16 with fewer review counts so far:

Final Fantasy XVI Reviews

Final Fantasy XVI is an action RPG that departs from the series' traditional turn-based combat, introducing fast-paced, reflex-driven mechanics. Critics praise the story’s emotional depth...

Gonna keep dropping as more reviews come in.

The game isn't bad but it's not particularly great either especially when you compare it to other Bethesda classics.

What do you care which site is more popular? They're review aggregators in the end they don't set the reviews themselves, on either sites the game is a critical success using mostly the same reviews, OpenCritic just has more reviews. It is a tribalism thing?

You still need to go in an options menu to tag the system though. You need an active mission or marker. And this doesn't work all the time. At least I tried in between planets in the same system and then it doesn't work, I still had to travel via the starmap.

It's also not consistent about when to show the cockpit grav drive animations.

It seems a bit buggy sometimes but it's hard to pinpoint so sometimes you think "is it me? Am I missing something" but it's just the game.

Cargo hold is another weird bug that sometimes the option to access the hold just isn't in the menu if you fasttravel directly into your ship, and you're like "wait, am I going crazy? Pretty sure I did it this way last time" but exiting and re-entering the ship somehow brings the option back.

You can do this with unmarked planets you can see. Look at a moon or planet thats not marked and select it with the mark button in your scanner while flying around.

If you cannot see them you need to use the starmap, which makes sense?.

ummm metracritic is where the vast majority of gamers check game reviews so it the one that will effect sales more, and sales in the long run.

All of this was in CP at launch. People like to pretend it was a broken mess at launch but at least the PC version was mostly fine.only

Only reason it was received terribly was because all the shit people talked about was on last gen consoles. All of the flak, last gen. The pc version was 9/10 if they just didn't bother with last gen there wouldn't have been as big of a stink.

Every article about it being bad, all last gen but people seem to think it was bad because of those old fucks complaining where the PC version was just fine.
 
wonder if bethesda does that "85 metacritic or no bonus" bullshit they fucked obsidian with, internally.
if so hopefully it can cling to it for the devs.

but this is the reality of day 1 review curation, nowhere to go but down.
 
For Starfield 86 score is not the problem , it could get 80 and nothing will happen.

The problem is tha it was hyped so much by Microsoft that a lot of people expected 98 -100 scores.

So blame yourself if you bieleved Todds ans Phils words...never trust the salesperson specially people like Todd and his background.

What's your prediction for steam review score?
I'm thinking a 80-86% positive
Click to expand...

Yeah I think so, over time it will goto very positive but this game takes time to get its claws into you. Its an odd one. Once it has you, you see how it's the best Bethesda game by a long shot.
 
Scores usually go lower as times goes by.

And Eurogamer and the likes haven't reviewed the game yet, so it will end in the 83-85 region, which is not bad.

But it was presented as a game changer.
 
So now we can actually fly to a planet in space, but it will just take a significant amount of time because...space is distinctly large and should reflect that. If reviewers mentioned feeling boxed in, how do they respond to the fact that they are not in fact boxed in and can go wherever they want it just takes a significant amount of time to do so?

Does this really still need explaining?

Probably not, as I would assume like most reviews they are a slice of the game in the moment and many can't/don't want to return to re-review. It's just interesting seeing a lot of the user reactions now bringing different perspectives, which is always expected come actual release, from the reviewers.

Heck, I was a game's journalist years ago and there is a certain rush to get the game reviewed, especially a big names title. It's just difficult to ascertain the true offering of a game until it has been played by yourself, if it interests you enough. That's obviously a reviews job though, to give you an idea of whether it may suit you or not.

Being able to fly for dozens of hours just to clip through a jpeg image isn't what people were asking for

Starfield is one of the best reviewed games of the year and almost everyone who's actually playing it is loving it, soooo
Click to expand...

A lot of people don't love the game. Plenty who are agreeing with the 7/10 scores. This is still in Early Access, the game is about to go into full release, you're going to see more and more negative and mixed opinions on it. You really there think isn't also a percentage of the people who spent $100 to get Early Access who aren't coping right now?
